'Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting' (X360) Now On Xbox Live Arcade

As we mentioned yesterday, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting hits Xbox Live Arcade today, Wednesday, August 2. The old-school classic from Capcom stays true to its roots with an amazing retro feel, and brings multiplayer action to the classic title for the first time.

As a true tribute to this critically acclaimed arcade fighting game, ‘Street Fighter II’ Hyper Fighting’ delivers the game in original form but also includes all new content specifically designed for Xbox Live Arcade. High definition video resolution, Achievements, Leaderboards, and online multiplayer combat over Xbox Live including the all new innovative "Quarter Match" takes this classic franchise phenom to next generation levels.

Online Multiplayer Mode – The game has both Ranked matches and Player matches, including the 4-player Quarter Match option

Quarter Match – entirely new mode for Xbox Live Arcade which is a spectator-based system as a tribute to the arcade roots, allowing online competitors (2 competitors and up to 2 spectators) to use a “virtual quarter” to “buy into” heated two player matches

Arcade Mode – simulates the single-player experience where gamers must work their way through a ladder of opponents until they face off against the final boss

Vs. Mode – allows two friends to select characters and battle it out

Fully customizable controls – players can map attacks to any of the main buttons and have the choice to map all three punches and/or all three kicks to a single button which simplifies complex moves

Comprehensive leaderboards – tracks overall and monthly best players using a point based system as well as rankings based on who is the best using each game character and most consecutive winning streaks
